Tho Self-Ruling Envelopes without the stamp annexed will bo manufactured in every variety of sizo, stylo and color, und sold at about tho usual pricos of ordinary envelopes of the sumo quuliy.

E. B. C. Qon. Wool. A correspondent of tho N. Y. Times writing from Washington miikes the following uncomfortnble statimont; The publio huvo not ceased wondering ilittt the cold shot lder should hnve been turned upon Gun. Wool so unceremoniously, and thnt ono of our most distinguished nnd nl)!o officers should hava been assigned to the cuinpiirativo obscurity of the Deparlment of ihe Kits , with his headqmrlers nt Troy, when his services wero so imperatively demanded in the field. I havo just learned tho history of the manner in which ho wan bo unceremo-niiusly shelved, and the influences which accomplished it. All reports to iho contrary, Gener.ls Scott and Wool havo nl-wnys been fast Iriends, nnd nothing has interrupted their professional or social relations. The order rem ndi g Gen. Wool lo 'Jroy from New York, aftui the invalid able strvicts which he had rendered in forwarding men and supplies tu the capital during the days of its greatest peiil, was undoubte ly written in the offine of the Secretary of War. After its ollijial publication, Gen. Scott, anxious to do Gen. Wool justice, nominated him for the command at Fort Monroe. This was suppressed in the War office and Gen. Butler was sent in his stead. Gen. Wool was too honest and thorough a soldier to answer the purposes of designing men, he had interfered with some of Iheir speculations in New York. Tho last nf this afTiiir is not yet. Gen. Wool, we learn, is 6lrongly backed by Senators and Representatives, and several members of the Military Committees have expressed a determination to make a full inquiry into the affair. The report of the Secretary of War will bo examined most carefully, and if it shall befound necessary a Committee of Investigation will be ordered. Gen. Wool is, and has been, so entirely right on the great issues at slake in this contest, that it is shameful and base to supplant him by men ignorant of the profession. We seem to have suffered sadly in consequence of the want of professional ability at Fort Monroe. All this, probably, would have been reversed if Gen. Scott's wishes had been regarded. Affairs at Norfolk. The Norfolk correspondent of the Rich mond Evaminer thus writes: The work of raising the sunken vessels at I ha Navy Yard has proved more diffi cult Ihun was anticipated indeed, appre hensions exist that the raining or the I'ly-mouth cannot be accomplished. It is Rome consolation to stale, however, that the Gcrmanlown sloop of war, nnd the Dolphin brig will be gotten up. With re spect to the fine steamer Merr mac, already docked, the decision is to cover with iron nnd convert her into a float ng baliery. The experience at Fort Sumter, and the further fact that Forliess Monroe mutt be in our possession by September, explains this determination. Presidont Davis coul 1, by no single feature of policy, more effeciually pro- mole Confederate interests than by issu ing o ders for the commandant at the na vy yard here to furnish cannon for privateers. A number of ships would at once ei'ter the service if their owners could receive a proper armament. Seveial steamers of light draft, but substantial, will leave here this week for ihe const of North Carolina. They Lave been strengthened, nrmcd, manned, and will render good service. Tkti iioencr has been received of the death of Signor Amddio, tho celebrated Italian opera singer. He died at sea. on a voynge from Vem ruelt to this country, of yellow fever, after forty-eight hours' sickness. A modio was a primo favorite among our American opera-goers, at a singer and dramatic artist. Harper's Firrt Machinirt.

Early this morn ing the troops concentrated here crossed tne ford at Willismsport. The post of honor fh crossing was given lo the f irst Wisconsin and Eleventh Pennsylvania Kegimenis. lliey came within seventy b've yar:ls of the enemy. Tim rebels at Martinsburg, numberiug four regiments infantry and one horse regiment were engaged in the conflict. They had four pieces of nrtillery, part rifled cannon, and commanded by Jackson. As fur as known our casualties are two killed and several wounded. Several dead and wounded secessionists were left on Ihe field in their hasty retreat. The loss of life on their side is very heavv. Anticipating the rettvat of our forces, the rebels had cut down ences, dec, to inter ceptus before reaching the river. The first stand was made at Porlera- field farm, near Paynsville, where the house and barn had been destroved to charere on the enemy. Here the conflict was tierce. The rebels finally retreated leaving knapsacks and blankets efury- where. Haoerstown, July 3. George Drke, of Milwaukee, was killuil in the fight at Wllliamsport. The names of others killed and wounded will bo in after a while, and will bo sent by telegraph, if any from the West. The fallowing dispatch was received here at fifteen minutes past two this morning: Black River, near Mai tinsburg. "( ol. E D, TWnend, Assistant Adjutant General: "I left Williamspnrt at 6 o'clock this morning, for this place, and drove and vouted the rebels, who were about 10,000 strong, and w o had four guns, I now occupy their camp, with the loss, I regret lo say, of three killed and ten wounded. (Signvd) "R. PATTERSON, "Mnjir General Commanding." It is said tuat General SjoU was much gratified with this news. Bkaureoard. One of the newspaper correspondents at Washingtou writes: The Virginians who have boen connected wilh the War Department here foryasrs fail to find anything on record going lo show that Beaujegard ha9 tver done anything more than draw his pay and play soldier. lie never distinguished himself in any way, either with tho Indians or Mexicans; while Generals Lee, Johnson and Miigruder have proved beyond all question that they are good and brave men. The sons of the Oi l Dominion have good cause to feel offended at Davis and Waiker for giving the defence of their slate to an entire 6tranger, while their own men are so abundantly able to command. Il is by no means impossible that Beauregard will fall in the first engagement from ft ball in the rear; marked facia as well as masked batteries are in use by the rebels. There is good sense i i the following extract from the N. Y, Post's Washington correspondence: NEWSPAPER CRlIIClfUS. The course of a portion of the Republican press towards the Administration is so decidedly hostile that tho government is soTiewh.it embarrassed. This I know to be a fact. A portion of the press labor ito undermine the confidence of the people n General Scott, and, in fact, by insinuations and criticisms, to destroy the military reputation of nlmost 8Tery officer under him.' Such may not be the intention of the articles alluded to, but they will have precisely that effect. Scott is altogether too slow the enemy must be in Richmond in thiee weeks, shouts ono journal. Yet there is not a military roan in the world who will not give it as his opimion thatif our small, ruw army concentrated around Waihington were tn "march straight on to Richmond" it would be utterly destroyed. And if it were, these impatient writers could shake off their responsibility .'or the slaughter of an army and the loss of a campaign but General Scolt could noil BAD EFFECTS OF INJUDICIOUS ATTACKS. The important question in thi connection is how hnn can any government exist and cirry on a great war against a vast rebellion, if it is to be the subject of such attacks as these from its professed friends? It is of no account whatever whether certain journals or certain statesmen have blundered, the great question iv will not the government break down under litis state of things? If loyal wrirers labor to destroy all confidence in Gen, Scott and the inferior officers, and also represent the lending membets of the g v- etnment to be anxious to show the cow ardly flag of compromise to tho rebels, how much longer will general or cabinet officer have it in bis power to serve the state. Tub skirmish nsar Cumberland, day before yesterday, was quite a little victory for our troops. Twenty-'.hree of the trai'or army were killed, and the rest scattered. Nearly all the skirmishes in Western Virginia aro successes, so far. Forward. A Wnshirgton dispa'ch to the N. Y.

E. B. C. Qon. Wool. A correspondent of tho N. Y. Times writing from Washington miikes the following uncomfortnble statimont; The publio huvo not ceased wondering ilittt the cold shot lder should hnve been turned upon Gun. Wool so unceremoniously, and thnt ono of our most distinguished nnd nl)!o officers should hava been assigned to the cuinpiirativo obscurity of the Deparlment of ihe Kits , with his headqmrlers nt Troy, when his services wero so imperatively demanded in the field. I havo just learned tho history of the manner in which ho wan bo unceremo-niiusly shelved, and the influences which accomplished it. All reports to iho contrary, Gener.ls Scott and Wool havo nl-wnys been fast Iriends, nnd nothing has interrupted their professional or social relations. The order rem ndi g Gen. Wool lo 'Jroy from New York, aftui the invalid able strvicts which he had rendered in forwarding men and supplies tu the capital during the days of its greatest peiil, was undoubte ly written in the offine of the Secretary of War. After its ollijial publication, Gen. Scott, anxious to do Gen. Wool justice, nominated him for the command at Fort Monroe. This was suppressed in the War office and Gen. Butler was sent in his stead. Gen. Wool was too honest and thorough a soldier to answer the purposes of designing men, he had interfered with some of Iheir speculations in New York. Tho last nf this afTiiir is not yet. Gen. Wool, we learn, is 6lrongly backed by Senators and Representatives, and several members of the Military Committees have expressed a determination to make a full inquiry into the affair. The report of the Secretary of War will bo examined most carefully, and if it shall befound necessary a Committee of Investigation will be ordered. Gen. Wool is, and has been, so entirely right on the great issues at slake in this contest, that it is shameful and base to supplant him by men ignorant of the profession. We seem to have suffered sadly in consequence of the want of professional ability at Fort Monroe. All this, probably, would have been reversed if Gen. Scott's wishes had been regarded. Affairs at Norfolk. The Norfolk correspondent of the Rich mond Evaminer thus writes: The work of raising the sunken vessels at I ha Navy Yard has proved more diffi cult Ihun was anticipated indeed, appre hensions exist that the raining or the I'ly-mouth cannot be accomplished. It is Rome consolation to stale, however, that the Gcrmanlown sloop of war, nnd the Dolphin brig will be gotten up. With re spect to the fine steamer Merr mac, already docked, the decision is to cover with iron nnd convert her into a float ng baliery. The experience at Fort Sumter, and the further fact that Forliess Monroe mutt be in our possession by September, explains this determination. Presidont Davis coul 1, by no single feature of policy, more effeciually pro- mole Confederate interests than by issu ing o ders for the commandant at the na vy yard here to furnish cannon for privateers. A number of ships would at once ei'ter the service if their owners could receive a proper armament. Seveial steamers of light draft, but substantial, will leave here this week for ihe const of North Carolina. They Lave been strengthened, nrmcd, manned, and will render good service.

Early this morn ing the troops concentrated here crossed tne ford at Willismsport. The post of honor fh crossing was given lo the f irst Wisconsin and Eleventh Pennsylvania Kegimenis. lliey came within seventy b've yar:ls of the enemy. Tim rebels at Martinsburg, numberiug four regiments infantry and one horse regiment were engaged in the conflict. They had four pieces of nrtillery, part rifled cannon, and commanded by Jackson. As fur as known our casualties are two killed and several wounded. Several dead and wounded secessionists were left on Ihe field in their hasty retreat. The loss of life on their side is very heavv. Anticipating the rettvat of our forces, the rebels had cut down ences, dec, to inter ceptus before reaching the river. The first stand was made at Porlera- field farm, near Paynsville, where the house and barn had been destroved to charere on the enemy. Here the conflict was tierce. The rebels finally retreated leaving knapsacks and blankets efury- where. Haoerstown, July 3. George Drke, of Milwaukee, was killuil in the fight at Wllliamsport.

(Signvd) "R. PATTERSON, "Mnjir General Commanding." It is said tuat General SjoU was much gratified with this news. Bkaureoard. One of the newspaper correspondents at Washingtou writes: The Virginians who have boen connected wilh the War Department here foryasrs fail to find anything on record going lo show that Beaujegard ha9 tver done anything more than draw his pay and play soldier. lie never distinguished himself in any way, either with tho Indians or Mexicans; while Generals Lee, Johnson and Miigruder have proved beyond all question that they are good and brave men. The sons of the Oi l Dominion have good cause to feel offended at Davis and Waiker for giving the defence of their slate to an entire 6tranger, while their own men are so abundantly able to command. Il is by no means impossible that Beauregard will fall in the first engagement from ft ball in the rear; marked facia as well as masked batteries are in use by the rebels. There is good sense i i the following extract from the N. Y, Post's Washington correspondence: NEWSPAPER CRlIIClfUS. The course of a portion of the Republican press towards the Administration is so decidedly hostile that tho government is soTiewh.it embarrassed. This I know to be a fact. A portion of the press labor ito undermine the confidence of the people n General Scott, and, in fact, by insinuations and criticisms, to destroy the military reputation of nlmost 8Tery officer under him.' Such may not be the intention of the articles alluded to, but they will have precisely that effect. Scott is altogether too slow the enemy must be in Richmond in thiee weeks, shouts ono journal. Yet there is not a military roan in the world who will not give it as his opimion thatif our small, ruw army concentrated around Waihington were tn "march straight on to Richmond" it would be utterly destroyed. And if it were, these impatient writers could shake off their responsibility .'or the slaughter of an army and the loss of a campaign but General Scolt could noil BAD EFFECTS OF INJUDICIOUS ATTACKS. The important question in thi connection is how hnn can any government exist and cirry on a great war against a vast rebellion, if it is to be the subject of such attacks as these from its professed friends?
